Despite being a recognized brand kit, it was a real pain in the fool to get a decent model.  It was a complicated kit with bad fit and without any detail especially in rivets or relief lines, which I had to redo.

The idea was to make a paint scheme that represented the plane as leaving the factory, in wood and metal finish.  For this I used the RB models PE masks, which perfectly represent the details of the wood.
It was the first test to learn how to use the RB set. And I got a good result. 

Next I will do a 2nd test, this time with a MiG 3 Trumpeter, in 1/32. If everything is perfect with it, I will do the original project that will be the Airfix 1/24 Mosquito.
Anyway, here are the photos of the completed
model.
